About Us

Established in 1975 by Sue Haine and Barry Smith, we have enjoyed remarkable success, opening 19 practices throughout Wiltshire, Gloucestershire and Oxfordshire. The latest practice in Amesbury opened at the end of June 2006.

We believe our success is due to the philosophy of being big enough to stay competitive, and install the very latest in technical equipment, without losing the personal touch and independent values of a smaller firm.

In addition to carrying out approximately 40,000 eye examinations a year, we also produce your glasses in our very own laboratory, Kennet Optical, allowing us to take care of your glasses every step of the way.
